Mourinho was filmed shouting abuse at Taylor in English and Italian in the VIP car park before leaving the Puskas Arena in Budapest. Towards the end of about 50 seconds of criticism he walked up to the passenger door of what appears to be the van in which Taylor was to be driven away. The Roma manager could face punishment from Uefa for his conduct there and in the press conference after Roma lost on penalties to Sevilla.
